CALL FOR EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST
AND SELECTION PROCESS
Update
On 29 July 2011, the FIA published a Press Release on its website pertaining to a “Call for Expressions of Interest” for the creation of a new high profile championship: the FIA Formula E Championship (“Championship”).
The FIA is now in a position to announce that its experts are currently finalising the Technical Terms and Conditions that will form the basis of a new Call for Expressions of Interest.
This Call for Expressions of Interest will be issued to identify and shortlist (at the latest in April 2012) those manufacturers that are in a position to commit to take part in the 2013 FIA Formula E Championship, either directly or/and via teams. Each manufacturer would be requested to produce a minimum number of cars so as to guarantee a minimum field, and a “balance of performance” system would be put in place in order to guarantee the sporting interest of the Championship.
